Power packs: Anton/Bauer’s rugged VCLX NM2

Weighing 13.3kg, the new model is lighter and built to withstand the rigours of set life, grip trucks and shipping cases. It is engineered from tough anodised aluminium with over-moulded end caps and handle grip. Efficient thermal design with passive cooling means no fan noise, and the sealed case is water-resistant up to 21.6cm.

Real-time onboard diagnostics are displayed on a 2.4in colour LCD, while new fleet management allows full command of entire battery fleets. The VCLX NM2 sends status information including capacity, cycle count, temperature and time-stamped reports directly from the battery via WiFi – information can also be downloaded to USB storage.
